Operating tips:GUID-E7610B58-6533-4D66-B2BE-0BE3685003B6.The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 seconds,
then reactivate the switch.
. Do not operate the power seat switch for a
long period of time when the engine is off.
This will discharge the battery.

Forward and backward (if so equipped):GUID-07A34C2B-9E2C-4F3E-971E-E98412E54A74Moving the switch*1forward or backward will
slide the seat forward or backward to the
desired position.
Reclining (if so equipped):
GUID-3730948B-B72A-41B4-B49F-2F4D28C8915FMove the recline switch*2backward until the
desired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback
forward again, move the switch

The reclining feature allows adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes for
added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. (See ªPrecautions on seat belt usageº
(P.1-10) .) The seatback may also be reclined to
allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is stopped and the transmission is in the P (Park)
position or N (Neutral) position with the parking
brake fully applied.

When the engine oil temperature is high,
the engine protection mode, which helps
reduce the chance of engine damage,
could activate and automatically decrease
engine power.
VoltmeterGUID-609889CD-E5DF-4590-8E80-A6657A493AA2When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the volt meter
*2indicates the battery
voltage. When the engine is running, it indicates
the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volts drop below
the normal range. If the needle is not in the
normal range (11 to 15 volts) while the engine is
running, it may indicate that the charging system
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
ClockGUID-879883DE-B11E-430D-B0A2-0F8D8EBE2D2CIf necessary, adjust the clock*3on the vehicle

The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system on for most
driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
